Our Lord received Himself in the fire of sorrow, He was saved not from the hour, but out of the hour.
From John 12:27-28: “Now My soul is troubled. And what should I say: ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? No, it is for this reason that I have come to this hour. Father, glorify Your name. Then a voice came from heaven, ‘I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.'”
Oswald Chambers (1874-1917) was a Scottish evangelist and Christian teacher. Following his death from an illness while in Egypt during World War I, his wife took on the task of transcribing the detailed notes she had written from his lectures and sermons. Gertrude Hobbs Chambers’ efforts resulted in the publication in 1924 of MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST. I frequently read from this devotional, and it has greatly deepened my faith and understanding of God’s Word.

All genuine education comes about through experience.
Hunger not to have, but to be.
John Dewey (1859-1952) was an American philosopher and educational reformer. A native of Vermont, he was born in Burlington.
Barney, an American tourist, is visiting an Aboriginal cultural site in Australia. For his enthusiastic audience, one of the guides plans to demonstrate how to throw a boomerang
He flings the L-shaped projectile outward, with the intention of it returning back to him. Or so . . . he hopes everything works out as intended.
As the summer heat burns up the air’s remaining moisture, Barney pulls out his water bottle for a thirst-quenching gulp. Unaware, he wanders right in front of the guide.
Sometimes, opposite forces must interact in a cataclysmic event. Now is one of those moments when time stands still.
The guide offers a hurried instruction, “Here it comes mate!”
